Changing from Hydro to Dirt (for mothers only)

I have decided to change my mothers to dirt after first and second generation hydro clones. I am getting some immeadiate curling and lightening of color. Any suggestions. No nutes at this point.

Hum, I never tried that. I would assume they will go into shock, water them real good, maybe add some b1 or super thrive.

Cruser101 is correct, everytime I tranplant I use B=1 or Superthrive (Becareful read the directions regards to application the superthrive is very strong) I just transplanted some mom's from soilless med. into real soil, so I didn't have to water so much. Also, yes make sure you do water them well with the superthrive. The next watering I use compost tea (I brew my own, got a bountea brew kit... Plants love the tea at all stages! I swear by it! Ive got mother plants that had for years... some r 8ft. tall. Peace & Happy growing!

I will try some worm tea and super thrive. Thanks!!

One other question. Is PH as big as consideration with soil as hydro? If so any suggestions? Thanks again

In soil its not as important because the soil acts like a buffer, If you can ph to like 6.5 it couldnt hurt.

Thanks again, I'll post how they (recover ) peace.

Yeah I PH @ 6.3... keep us posted. Mother plants r alot of work...Keeping them healthly is a daily chore. I went to a local medical marijuana seminar a few years back and Ed Rosenthal was speaking...He had some great information on mothers & keeping them Healthly. He has some great books that have helped me through the years. "Marijuana Garden Saver" (www.quicktrading.com) is a handy one to have right next to, Medical Marijuana Grower's Bible.
